Glass Lake – N.Y. Olympus 510 / The Importance of Honeybees / Brought here from Europe in the 1600s, honeybees have become widespread across North America and are bred commercially for their abilities to produce honey and pollinate crops—90 different farm-grown foods, including many fruits and nuts, depend on honeybees. But in recent years honeybee populations across the continent have plummeted by as much as 70 percent, and biologists are still scratching their heads as to why and what to do about the problem which they have termed “colony collapse disorder” (CCD). Chemicals May Be Killing the Honeybees / Many believe that our increasing use of chemical pesticides and herbicides, which honeybees ingest during their daily pollination rounds, are largely to blame. Commercial beehives are also subjected to direct chemical fumigation at regular intervals to ward off destructive mites. Another leading suspect is genetically modified crops, which may generate pollen with compromised nutritional value. It may be that the build-up of both synthetic chemicals and genetically modified crop pollen has reached a “tipping point,” stressing bee populations to the point of collapse. Lending credence to this theory is that organic bee colonies, where chemicals and genetically modified crops are avoided, are not experiencing the same kind of catastrophic collapses, according to the non-profit Organic Consumers Association. / Info from this site /

Glass Lake, N.Y. / August 2008 / The herons are wading birds in the Ardeidae family. Some are called egrets or bitterns instead of herons. Within the family, all members of the genera Botaurus and Ixobrychus are referred to as bitterns, and – including the Zigzag Heron or Zigzag Bittern – are a monophyletic group within the Ardeidae. However, egrets are not a biologically distinct group from the herons, and tend to be named differently because they are mainly white and/or have decorative plumes, and while having the same build as the larger herons tend to be smaller. / The classification of the individual heron/egret species is fraught with difficulty, and there is still no clear consensus about the correct placement of many species into either of the two major genera, Ardea and Egretta. Similarly, the relationship of the genera in the family is not completely resolved. However, one species formerly considered to constitute a separate monotypic family Cochlearidae, the Boat-billed Heron, is now regarded as a member of the Ardeidae. / Although herons resemble birds in some other families, such as the storks, ibises and spoonbills, they differ from these in flying with their necks retracted, not outstretched. They are also one of the bird groups that have powder down. / Some members of this group nest colonially in trees, others, notably the bitterns, use reedbeds.(wiki) The sunfishes are a family (Centrarchidae) of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the order Perciformes. The type genus is Centrarchus (consisting solely of the flier, C. macropterus). The family’s 27 species includes many fishes familiar to North Americans, including the rock bass, largemouth bass, bluegill, and crappies. All are native only to North America. / / / /

Lessons from the Mist I wait and listen / As the mist rises / From the water / Drifting over my face / As I sit on / the table rock. I hear the drums, / The singers and / The voices of / The ancient ones. / Stories are told me / In wisps of mist. “Keep these stories buried in your heart, / and when you share them, remember,they do / not belong to you. Every word you speak / or write, has been spoken or written before. / Take no credit for those things which belong / to every one. “One day the earth will groan with the pain / inflicted on her by the carelessness and / indifference of man. He treads the storehouses / of the Mother and pollutes her wells. Wherever / he walks he leaves the footprints of his greed. “The day will come when you will stand proud. / Your face will show the strength of your red blood / and the words you speak and write will be those / given to you in the wisdom of the ancients. / Not your words, grandaughter, speak not your words. “Look to the forests, the lakes, streams and ponds, / to the ocean, the skies and the soil for the words / to speak. In them, you will find the knowledge of the / ancients. Touch the trees, smell the dirt, bathe in / the ponds and they will fill you with their wisdom. “Drink tea made from the pine and it will heal you along / with the healing herbs that grow abundantly in the fields / planted by the hand of our Creator. For each plant you dig, you must leave three healthy ones to reproduce and provide / for years to come. Do not forget these lessons. “There was a time when the gifts of the earth were free / for all men. Each person used only what they needed. / They did not store the water and sell it to their brother. / The Creator provided for all men, good and bad, water to drink, food to eat, sun to warm and rain to clean. “Speak these words to all who listen. Aho” Copyright 2009, Judith Hayes

Looking north up the length of Jordan Pond…the twin peaks (yes, they look like…) in the center are ‘The Bubbles’...the mountain to the left in frame is Penobscot Mountain…the mountain to the right in frame is Pemetic Mountain…a cold, and very windy day, this pond is very protected; it is usually very calm…one of the most popular places, on one of the busiest weekends of the year for tourists, but I could still get shots without people…nice place! / This area is easily accessible, with carriage roads, a great walking path around the lake, a natural amphitheater, and an excellent (and usually crowded) restaurant… Jordan Pond, Acadia National Park, Mt.
